My name is Gabriel Pech, journalist by profession, history buff and guide for 4 years in the city of Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico. I speak the Mayan language, and also English. For more than 10 years I have been promoting the use and customs of the Mayan culture in the state. It will be an honor to guide you in this beautiful colonial city called Mérida, a piece of paradise on the soil of Mexico. I am sure that you will enjoy this tour that aims to enrich and highlight the historical, cultural and recreational details of this beautiful city. On Sunday mornings we will visit the Lucas de Gálvez market to see the colorful fresh fruits of the region and the Sunday atmosphere.
Great introduction to Mérida. Glad the walk was efficient and abundant with information because Mérida is very hot so no need to lengthen the walk with extra information or sites…perfect length!
We really enjoyed our evening walking tour with Gabriel. He was passionate about his Mayan culture and conveyed this very well as we walked the city and he was good at pointing out interesting details about the places we saw
Gabriel gave an informative yet interesting tour. I sometimes find tour guides have memorised facts and repeat them to us but Gabriel delivered the information in a conversational way that kept things interesting. He also gave us some great recommendations for Merida.
Very enjoyable tour! You could tell he was very passionate about his city and had many good tips on different subjects. He was personable and funny, and I learned a lot about the city.
